Answer:

3 electrons is contributed from each Nitrogen atom.

Total 6 electrons are shared in N₂.

Explanation:

Nitrogen is belong to group VA
it have 5 electron in its outer most Shell.
it need 3 electrons complete its octet to become stable.
Nitrogen have total 7 electrons.
its atomic number is 7

The electronic configuration of Nitrogen is as:

1s², 2s², 2p³

it exist in diatomic form standard temperature and pressure.

Nitrogen form covalent bond and share 3 electron from each side.

total 6 electron are shared between 2 nitrogen atom.

For Covalent bonding it can share its 3 electrons.

The diagrammatic representation is in attachment.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the given data is as follows.

V = 3.10 L, T = $19^{o}C$ = (19 + 273)K = 292 K

P = 40 torr (1 atm = 760 torr)

So, P = $\frac{40 torr}{760 torr} \times 1 atm$

= 0.053 atm

n = ?

According to the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT.

Putting the given values into the above equation to calculate the value of n as follows.

PV = nRT

$0.053 atm \times 3.10 L = n \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 292 K$

0.1643 = $n \times 23.97$

n = $6.85 \times 10^{-3}$

It is known that molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol. Hence, calculate its mass as follows.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

$6.85 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{mass}{46 g/mol}$

mass = $315.1 \times 10^{-3}$ g

= 0.315 g

Thus, we can conclude that the mass of liquid ethanol is 0.315 g.

What is the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 6.40x10^4 meters?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of wave = 6.4× 10⁴ m

Frequency of wave = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of wave = wavelength × frequency

Speed of wave = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Now we will put the values in formula.

3 × 10⁸ m/s = 6.4× 10⁴ m × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10⁸ m/s / 6.4× 10⁴ m

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ /s

s⁻¹ = Hz

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ Hz

Thus the wave with wavelength of 6.4× 10⁴ m have 0.47×10⁴ Hz frequency.

The thallium (present as Tl2SO4) in a 9.486-g pesticide sample was precipitated as thallium(I) iodide. Calculate the mass percen

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer: The mass percentage of $Tl_2SO_4$ is 5.86%

Explanation:

To calculate the mass percentage of $Tl_2SO_4$ in the sample it is necessary to know the mass of the solute ( $Tl_2SO_4$ in this case), and the mass of the solution (pesticide sample, whose mass is explicit in the letter of the problem).

To calculate the mass of the solute, we must take the mass of the $TlI$ precipitate. We can establish a relation between the mass of $TlI$ and $Tl_2SO_4$ using the stoichiometry of the compounds:

$moles\ of\ TlI = \frac{0.1824 g}{331.27\frac{g}{mol} } = 5.51*10^{-4}\ mol.$

Since for every mole of Tl in $TlI$ there are two moles of Tl in $Tl_2SO_4$ , we have:

$moles\ of\ Tl_2SO_4 = 2 * moles\ of\ TlI = 1,102*10^{-3}\ mol$

Using the molar mass of $Tl_2SO_4$ we have:

$mass\ of\ Tl_2SO_4 = 1,102*10^{-3}\ mol * 504.83\ \frac{g}{mol}= 0.56\ g$

Finally, we can use the mass percentage formula:

$mass\ percentage = (\frac{solute\ mass}{solution\ mass} )*100 = (\frac{mass\ of\ Tl_2SO_4}{pesticide\ sample\ mass})*100 = (\frac{0.56g}{9.486g})*100 = 5.86\%$
